The AP reported this morning on some of today’s observances marking the 16th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. The piece included remembrances from victims’ relatives, future plans for Ground Zero and Shanksville, and a jab at a trailblazing woman.
Wait… What?
Yes. This actually happened:
Yet last year's 15th-anniversary ceremony became entangled in the narrative of a fractious presidential campaign when Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton left abruptly, stumbled into a van and ultimately revealed she'd been diagnosed days earlier with pneumonia.
Shamefully, even a solemn anniversary of one of America’s darkest days is no match for the media’s quarter-century-long obsession with tearing down Hillary Rodham Clinton.
